Target Information

Target Symbol CD8A
Target Name T-cell surface glycoprotein CD8 alpha chain
UniProt ID P01732
Cellular Localization Secreted and Cell membrane.
Function Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains.
Involvement in Disease Defects in CD8A are a cause of familial CD8 deficiency (CD8 deficiency). Familial CD8 deficiency is a novel autosomal recessive immunologic defect characterized by absence of CD8+ cells, leading to recurrent bacterial infections.
Post-translational Modifications All of the five most carboxyl-terminal cysteines form inter-chain disulfide bonds in dimers and higher multimers, while the four N-terminal cysteines do not.
Sequence Similarities Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
